Chapter 746: Baragan Attacks the Urahara Shop?
Chapter 746: Baragan Attacks the Urahara Shop?
As Suibee stepped forward with Sparrow Bee, Yecheng understood her intentions, but still reached out to stop her.
Suibee frowned slightly, thinking that Yecheng was hesitating because of Yaronilo's words, showing a moment of kindness.
Yaronilo, on the other hand, revealed a look of elation, as he had only been testing to see if he could survive in this manner, never expecting the Shinigami to be so naive.
The Shinigami he had devoured for so long, whose spirit had become a part of him, was still harboring delusions...
Just as Yaronilo was inwardly mocking Yecheng's naivety, a long sword pierced through his body once again.
When he looked up, he saw the "naive" Shinigami smiling at him.
"Do you think I wasted all this time with you just to watch your performance?
I'll let the spirit go, but I'll take the remnants of her soul."
Shihouzu's spirit had long become a part of Yaronilo, and in a sense, Seagull had been 'bull-headed' by him.
The current Yeshen Yedu already had a new spirit, so his original spirit was no longer as important.
However, the portion of the soul that Yaronilo had devoured earlier must now be retrieved.
Similar to Rangiku's situation, Shihouzu, having had a part of her soul taken, could still act and perform Shikai, but with their incomplete soul state, they would never be able to achieve Bankai.
If Suibee were to take action, Sparrow Bee's "Two-Hit Kill" ability would likely shatter Yaronilo along with Shihouzu's soul, rendering his efforts pointless.
After dealing with Yaronilo and reclaiming Shihouzu's fragmented soul, Yecheng then helped Lucia heal her injuries.
Through her explanation, Yecheng learned that Ichigo and the others had come to Hueco Mundo not out of recklessness but because Urahara Kisuke, in a desperate situation, had sent them there.
The reason was simple: Baragan, accompanied by his bodyguards, Shimagami Gin and Dongxian Yao, had attacked the Urahara Shop in the living world.
With Yecheng's interference, the Zero Division had learned of Baragan's intentions ahead of time and taken measures, and the immense spiritual pressure Yecheng had unleashed in the living world had given Hair Gel Guy a sense of crisis.
The intelligent and cautious Baragan, anticipating that the Soul Society might take action soon, made his next move in advance.
Baragan was well aware of the existence of the Urahara Shop group, but he had never paid them any mind before.
However, things were different now, and sensing that his enemies might have an advantage, Baragan was eager to accelerate the evolution of the Collapse Sphere.
To expedite the evolution of the Collapse Sphere, if there was anyone in this world who could do it, or knew how to, it could only be Urahara Kisuke.
After all, Urahara Kisuke was one of the creators of the Collapse Sphere, and his talent and intelligence were admired even by the arrogant Baragan.
While the Gotei Thirteen and the Zero Division combined might not be enough to fear, the evolution of the Collapse Sphere had to be prioritized.
For this reason, Baragan's trio sought out the Urahara Shop, extending an olive branch, with Baragan openly stating that Urahara Kisuke possessed such capabilities and need not submit to the Spirit King.
And of course, the outcome was as expected. Pururi Kiyotsugu and Yagi Yachi had no intention of colluding with Ganjuuzo Sonido, and the two sides immediately engaged in a fierce battle.
Unfortunately, even with the combined efforts of Pururi Kiyotsugu, Yagi Yachi, Kurosaki Ichigo, and Ishida Ryuken, they were still no match for Ganjuuzo Sonido.
The Masked Army faced off against Dongxian Yao and Shimagami Gin, gaining a slight advantage, but once Dongxian Yao fully Hollowfied, the tables turned, and they were at a complete disadvantage.
Kurosaki Ichigo and his friends, fueled by their youthful passion, wanted to join the fight, but they were swiftly kicked into Hueco Mundo by Kurosaki Ichigo and Pururi Kiyotsugu.
Traveling to Soul Society would have been safer than going to Hueco Mundo, but the situation was urgent, and there was no time to open a Senkaimon to Soul Society.
The Black Throat Channel device leading to Hueco Mundo had been prepared in advance by Pururi Kiyotsugu, waiting for Kurosaki Ichigo and his friends to complete their training so they could rescue Ise Uzuki.
Both Kurosaki Ichigo and Pururi Kiyotsugu were well aware of the crucial role Kurosaki Ichigo played in defeating Ganjuuzo Sonido.
However, Kurosaki Ichigo had not yet reached his full potential, and challenging Ganjuuzo Sonido with his current abilities would undoubtedly lead to a dead end.
Therefore, while holding back Ganjuuzo Sonido, the two men also decisively sent Kurosaki Ichigo and his friends to Hueco Mundo.
Upon hearing Lucia's account of the events, Yeshen Yecheng was stunned.
Did Ganjuuzo Sonido attack Pururi Shop in the original story?
It seemed that his minor manipulations had indeed altered the plot to some extent! No wonder the Special Task Force had been in Hueco Mundo for a while, but Ganjuuzo Sonido had shown no response. It appeared that he was not even at home!
Why hadn't Helibel and Shimagami Gin informed him of such a significant event?
Helibel's previous appearance suggested that she might have been unaware of Ganjuuzo Sonido's actions, but what about Shimagami Gin? He was a high-level Second Class Arrancar.
Shimagami Gin had intended to inform Yeshen Yecheng about Ganjuuzo Sonido's attack on Pururi Shop, but Ganjuuzo Sonido was always by his side, leaving him no opportunity.
Furthermore, Shimagami Gin was unaware of the connection between Yeshen Yecheng and Pururi Shop. He had planned to contact Yeshen Yecheng after the fact.
"So, what was the final outcome? What happened to Pururi Kiyotsugu and Yagi Yachi?"
Yeshen Yecheng could sense the urgency in his question, and Suibee, standing beside him, also looked anxious.
With the Collapse Sphere, Ganjuuzo Sonido's current strength was uncertain, and Yeshen Yecheng had no idea how powerful he had become.
He was now worried about Pururi Kiyotsugu and Kurosaki Ichigo. If they were truly defeated by Ganjuuzo Sonido, the situation would be dire.
If Kurosaki Ichigo were defeated, would the Pig Slaying Blade Boy completely turn to darkness? And if Pururi Kiyotsugu were gone, who would seal the Collapse Sphere? The Collapse Sphere was like a bug in this world, with its infinite evolution ability pushing organisms towards true perfection. It had no limits, and with the emergence of stronger beings, the Collapse Sphere would cause the host to evolve and surpass them once more.
In the original story, if it weren't for Pururi Kiyotsugu sealing the technique along with Kido into Ganjuuzo Sonido's body, even if Kurosaki Ichigo's "Final Crescent Moon Assault" could suppress Ganjuuzo Sonido, it would only be temporary.
The Collapse Sphere would prompt Ganjuuzo Sonido to evolve again, gradually purifying him to the same dimension as Kurosaki Ichigo during the "Final Crescent Moon Assault," and then surpass him.
This was why, despite Yeshen Yecheng's strength, he still felt uncertain when facing Ganjuuzo Sonido.
